RDW, Why have spies read a thread? Damned if I know! But that's the MO some people follow, and it's nothing new.

Given the choice between having my posts deleted or being moderated off a thread, I would choose the latter. I would become quite bristly should my posts be removed for reasons other than TOU violations which, rest assured, would not be found in anything I would post.

Moderated threads become a bit more prickly an issue. Some people are thread killers, bringing little but obnoxious noise to the threads they are still allowed to post to. All in all, left on my own, I would prefer no moderated threads. I would prefer that other posters refrain from replying to the noisemakers, for I think that such non-action would go a long way in relaying to them how totally unwelcome they are. I think they would either clean up their posting style or shuffle on off. - Holly
